Summary:

King Y. Chung is, as his colleagues have described him, probably the best architectural model maker in Hong Kong. This is not simply a look at how models are made, but rather his personal story of a lifetime's work, which has closely tracked Hong Kong's rapid development over the last thirty-six years. This volume captures the breadth of Hong Kong's recent architectural development, including design prototypes and study and architectural models of Hong Kong's most iconic buildings, including HSBC Headquarters and the Hong Kong International Airport. At the time of this book's publication, King has completed 2,162 models.
